I drew a muzzy elk tag this year, headed down next weekend. I’ll send you any good pics I get.

That is some awesome footage. Looks like you have found the spot. Good luck!!!

RE: Available TOMORROW at 8am I just checked my preference points and it looks like I did not draw in 2012 for deer or antelope. It shows that I have 7 points for deer now. Maybe next year.

I want tickets

I am using the TU adapter and the camera they sale, it is a Canon Elph 100HS.

Just got a new camera and Vortex Razor spotter, found this bull at 1253 yards. He was just sitting there watching us, I had a tag but there was no way to get closer to him with only a few minutes of daylight left. The picture looks like it is bright and in the middle of the day but it was...

I will be heading out this week for my elk hunt, had this tag a few times before and we always have fun and see some elk. I also have a wolf tag just in case I stumble across one. Has anyone been out in this are lately? How is the elk herd? I understand that it might not be as good as the...

I will be hunting mostly with a rifle but occasionally with my bow.

I am in need of a good day pack, one that will carry a Vortex Razor 85mm spotter, a medium size tripod (24" folded, 3#), knife, flashlight, lunch, water, camera, etc. This will not be used for overnight trips and only used to pack meat out on the initial trip until I get my frame pack. I have...

Thanks for the replies guys. I am really leaning toward the Razor. What backpack are you guys using to carry your spotter and tripod? I have a BL2200 and it seems to be ok, is there something better out there? All of my hunts will be up early and out all day, not staying overnight. Thanks...

I have the money saved up for a new spotting scope ($1500) and I am looking close at the Razor. My only concern is the size and weight of it, I will use it from my backpack about 1/2 the time. What kind of tripod do you guys use when backpacking? Do any of you guys use it for a backpacking...

I just checked mine and my wife's. We both have points added to our OIL and Limited Entry from this year. It shows that I have a bonus point for general deer but that I also got a permit. Maybe because I did not draw my first choice???

Just curious how many points did you have? I was down there 2 years ago and had a blast. You should have a good time and get a chance to look over a few good bulls. Don't shoot the first one that you see, go down a few days early and find out where they are at. My dad shot the first bull we...

My dad and I both drew bear tags for the spring hunt on the San Juan. We have spent some time on the unit hunting deer and elk but never bear. We have a buddy who runs dogs and we had planned on using him to help chase a few bears around, well it doesn't look like he will be able to help us...

Both my Dad and I drew San Juan Spring tags!!! We are feeling pretty lucky as we did not put in as a group and I had 6 points and he only had 4. We will need some help, we know the Elk Ridge area somewhat from last years elk hunt but have never hunted bears down there. Any info please let...

Just found out that my Dad and I both drew the San Juan Spring Bear tag. Never been bear hunting before, should be fun. Anyone have any pointers let me know. RYan

Hey Guys - My dad also drew this tag. He had 15 points so we thought that his chances would be good this year. I have been down there during the last week of Sept and it was incredible to hear and see all of the activity going on. My only concern is keeping my dad from not shooting the first...

I am no expert but I also use H4895 for my 204. It is my understanding that H4895 is an Extreme powder meaning that temperature has little to no effect on it. I noticed differences when using H380 from cold winter days to hot summer days, that is why I switched to H4895.

I went for a 4 wheeler ride yesterday and had no problem (other than dust) making it all the way to the top. When on top of Inspiration Point we saw 30-40 goats just below the peak. It was pretty cool, I have never seen that many at one time together. Good luck with your hunt, if you see a...

I will bet Utah has more applicants this year that ever before. I do not think that having to buy a license will affect the application numbers this year. Utah has some great hunting opportunities that are still cheaper to apply for than other states. Will see when the #'s are released.

My dad has 14 points for Moose in Utah, he has been putting in on the Cache for the past 14 years. After spending lots of time the past two years looking for a good moose up there I am concerned that the Cache is not the best choice. We know that area rather well and have not seen many good...

I am also looking at getting one of these .204 guns. My father-in-law has one and loves it. My question is which one? Remington 700 LV SF or Remington 700 VS SFII I have been looking at these and am leaning to the heavier longer barrel one. Not sure about packing it around but better...

It was no different in the Southern region. I couldn't belive the ATV's, piss poor shooting, or the 2 point killing that took place. Talked to a group that complained about lack of big bucks, they told me they hunted hard and managed to fill 6 of 8 tags with 2 points and spikes by Sunday...

Smooth modules on mine

1) Bowtech Allegiance 2) I shoot in a local 3D league, but really just to practice for the elk and mule deer season. Could get addicted to this 3d stuff though, it has been alot of fun. 3) Browning , Hoyt, Bowtech 4) 15 years

If you are in the Logan area stop by Rocky Mountain Sports in Providence? It is a new store that is a dealer for several brands including Matthews. I bought a new bow from them last year and I have been pleased with the service. Good luck.

Is the 777 a much cleaner burning pellet? What is the difference between the Pyrodex pellets and the 777 pellets?

I have an older Knight muzzleloader (50 cal) with the 209 conversion primer kit installed. I have been using 2-50g Pyrodex pellets with the 250g Knight Red Hot Sabots since I bought it years ago. I am out of the Red Hots and have never tried any other bullets. It shoots ok groups and have been...

I have been looking at purchasing a spotting scope and the Nikon Fieldscope III really grabs my attention. Does anyone out there have any experience with this model. I am looking at the 60mm unit. Is the ED version worth the extra $$. I do not plan on taking pictures with it right now but...

:-)Wow - I found out that I drew Unit 51(late) also. Looks like quite a few of us MM members will be in Idaho come Nov. Good luck to all.

Well unfortunately no elk tag for me or my dad this year. I really thought that it would be my dad's year with 12 points and choosing muzzleloader. Oh well maybe next year, keep those pics coming Travis.

Nice pics - I probably will not draw this year but my dad has a very good chance (12 pts Muzz). Hope to see a few of these when (if) we get a chance this year.

LAST EDITED ON Feb-28-06 AT 05:18PM (MST)[p]:-( No luck drawing a limited unit - at least I have a point. Maybe next year, good luck to everyone else.

I put in for San Juan Archery Elk - Resident 9 points My dad put in for San Juan Muzz Elk - Resident 12 points My dad should have a 40-50% chance of drawing, I will need lots of luck. Good luck to all on the draw.

LAST EDITED ON Feb-18-06 AT 03:29PM (MST)[p]Me - Resident San Juan Archery Elk - 9 points Cache Moose - 9 points My Dad - Resident San Juan Muzzleloader Elk - 12 points Cache Moose - 12 points I don't have much of a chance but my dad sure does. Good luck.

I have been looking for several weeks and have shot almost all of the bows available, here is what I bought: 2006 Bowtech Allegiance Top Gun F22 Sight QAD Ultra Hunter Rest Sims S-Coil stabilizer Radial X STL Hunter Carbon Arrows Bowtech One-piece quiver Should arrive next week. Almost...

I was lucky enough to draw a NR Idaho Unit 51 Elk Tag for the late season hunt. Wondering if anyone out there has any knowledge or suggestions about this area. I am not really sure what to expect hunting this late in the year (other than cold temperatures and snow). Any info would be great...
